r - 为ggplot2中的每个图例分配不同的背景颜色

Question

此page显示了如何使用ggplot函数操作guide_legend的多个图例，例如顺序，标题颜色。我想知道是否可以分别修改每个图例的背景颜色。谢谢!

ggplot(mpg, aes(displ, cty)) +
  # I tired to use legend.background and a list of colors in fill to individually change the color, but is it not working
  theme(legend.background=element_rect(fill=c('brown','grey','whie'))) +
  geom_point(aes(size = hwy, colour = cyl, shape = drv)) +
  guides(
    colour = guide_colourbar(order = 1),
    # title.theme allows individual adjustment of title color, I wonder if similar can be done for legend background color
    shape = guide_legend(order = 2,title.theme = element_text(color='green')),
    size = guide_legend(order = 3,label.theme=element_text(color='red'))
  )

我认为没有办法将多种颜色发送到legend.background。如果这对您确实很重要，那么您可能需要在最后的情节中破解这些怪胎。这是一个无需使用任何外部程序包即可完成的小功能:

recolor_legends <- function(gg_plot, col)
{
  p2      <- ggplotGrob(gg_plot)
  grobs   <- p2$grobs[which(p2$layout$name == "guide-box")][[1]]$grobs
  legends <- grobs[sapply(grobs, function(x) any(grepl("grobs", names(x))))]
  bgs     <- lapply(legends, function(x) {
    x$grobs[x$layout$name == "background"][[1]]
  })
  bgs <- mapply(function(x, y) {x$gp$fill <- y; x}, bgs, col, SIMPLIFY = FALSE)
  legends <- mapply(function(x, y){
    x$grobs[x$layout$name == "background"][[1]] <- y; x
  }, legends, bgs, SIMPLIFY = FALSE)
  grobs[sapply(grobs, function(x) any(grepl("grobs", names(x))))] <- legends
  p2$grobs[which(p2$layout$name == "guide-box")][[1]]$grobs <- grobs
  plot(p2)
}

因此，假设我有以下情节:

p <- ggplot(mpg, aes(displ, cty)) +
  geom_point(aes(size = hwy, colour = cyl, shape = drv)) +
  guides(
    colour = guide_colourbar(order = 1),
    shape = guide_legend(order = 2,
    title.theme = element_text(color = 'green')),
    size = guide_legend(order = 3, label.theme = element_text(color = 'red'))
  )

p

我可以做

recolor_legends(p, c("red", "blue", "green"))
